Transformation

Falling helplessly into a pool of crimson pride Wanting to swim with a wound in my side Body so drained from its mass Eyes from silver to the reddest glass I am changing in so many ways Within the darkness where evil plays No light behind these eyes of mine My tattered heart so hard to find Teeth hurt so by all the growing What is happening its maddening not knowing Transformation finally releasing Try so hard and try resisting This power too strong for me to hold My heart so dry my veins so cold Hair turned black as night from a dirty brown My body still falling, falling so far down This liquid around me So refreshing what could it be? Tis blood that is all around No light no walls not even a sound Alone in life’s loving drink To where I am falling so hard to think What am I becoming? Please who are you relieve my numbing Give me the strength so I may leave This retched ploy I won’t deceive You are my master my liege Up my body my soul lay your siege Let me be a loyal minion It does not matter what is my decision Please let this darkness fall Give me the power to get rid of it all Slowly I start to rise I focus my eyes Upon the new world of mine I am all-powerful it shall be my time To show my demons upon the night I am now and forever will be the Crimson Knight
